I like these headlights... there is voodoo brand and venom, racecarinnivations etc... anyone buy some and happy with their seller and brand?
Mine are spyder and im sure those are too. Only thing is you prob should get switchbacks for the blinkers, i still need to get me some but other than that, plug and play, good light output, (as good as stock or better) and no aiming necessary;)

The orange reflector on the side is different also... looks like Pete has the first style you posted.

Looks like the one with 1 plug uses a factory style plug and reflector and the one with 2 plugs uses aftermarket style connectors and reflector.

Switchbacks are LED bulbs that "switch back" and forth between 2 colors allowing you to have white parking lights that change to Amber when you turn on your signal and then return to white after the signal is cancelled.

There are 2 types of switchback bulbs referred to as type1 and type 2.

As an example...
Type 1 would be white parking light and the signal would flash... Amber>White>Amber>White

Type 2 would be white parking light and the signal would flash...
Amber>Off>Amber>Off

I prefer type 2 as I think it makes your intention to turn more clear but it is personal preference... also you should check your local laws about such matters if you care or if they are picky... like Virginia.

Here's mine installed, currently have some kensun 35w 5500k hids in for the lows and highs. Moved the LEDs from my stock drl and turns into these. Light output is meh, better than stock but barely. Gna be cracking them open and putting in some morimoto d2s 4.0 square projectors eventually. Just need to find a ****** oven on craigslist.

Let us know how that goes. I have experience in opening headlights (two dozen plus gt86/BRZ headlights) and have been wanting to do something different with the old hoe. Thinking this style headlight retrofitted with morimotos too, but maybe incorporating rigid pods for the high beams (only concern is heat which might veer me from going that route). I’ll likely brighten the boomerang as well.

I would recommend a set of HIDs from @Vanquish Auto.
I had a cheap set of HIDs from amazon, and they were barely better than the stock bulbs.
The difference is like night and day with the Vanquish Auto branded HIDs. They are just as bright as the stock projectors that GM is putting in the new trucks, and the 5000k bulbs look like they are the same color temp as the stock HIDs as well.

How long have you had the Spyders? I got some for my Deville, and after a year they are trash? I'm hoping maybe these are better quality, they look great.
